Just heard the sad news on Dave Bailey's passing, my deepest condolences to his family. Dave was a one-off, a nicer and more helpful man you could not meet.

I was given this aircraft with a view to the owner seeing it fly, very generous. However I have a query. There are two wing joiners for the wings to slide onto and struts underneath as fixings, there is no other fixing for the two wings and there is no reinforcement at the roots where I could screw ...

I have dealt with Vapextech and and found them to be extremely helpful. They replaced a faulty Tx battery without question, even though I could not find my invoice to confirm purchase date. Good products too, well worth a try.

All the best for 2011 to one and all. Looking forward to a good long flying season.

Cheers
